Timeline of the Colonial World

History Highlights: A Gareth Stevens Timeline Series

The colonial period—dramatically and objectively presented here—was one of great exploration and great controversy. Europeans conquered much of North and South America and then brought Africans to work as slaves in their new colonies. Local resistance to foreign rule led to the American Revolution and the liberation of South America. Britain and France then headed the race to colonize Africa. Maps, sidebars, and primary source exam questions are included, making this a fantastic go-to resource.
